Easley to IR

[aluminum seats]

Easley's running out of chances.

No he's not.

 

[TBR]

WTF

 

[FourierSeries]

Luckily, we're incredibly deep at DL.

 

[IcyPatriot]

Injuries this year are brutal.

HGH

 

[BradyFTW!]

To be a season ending injury, Must be another knee injury, poor guy is cursed. He was really coming along, looked like the explosive college star was becoming and explosive pro star. Really sad situation. Loved the way he was playing.

Not necessarily. Given how late we are in the season, any injury that was likely to take more than a month to heal is enough for the Pats to probably just IR him.

Given his history, knee injury is right where my mind went, and that's what I'm guessing it likely is, but it could be something else.

Getting tough to find silver linings, but at least Blount, McCourty, Freeny still in play for playoffs. Interesting that, knowing about Easley, the Pats still signed Ball to PS. Wonder who gets the open roster slot?

 

[obgod3]

this guy just has a cloud over his head...i feel bad for him.

 

[PatriotsPimp136]

No he's not.

Listen he's great but he can't catch a break with these injuries. What can he do to stay healthy one year?

 

[PatriotsPimp136]

I hope hicks can keep getting better.

 

[JDot]

Jesus, it just does not stop.

 

[chasa]

so much for "it didn't look bad, hell miss one game tops"

 

[RobertWeathers]

Picking up Akiem Hicks looks better and better every week.

 

[n1997y]

There goes our Best inside Pass Rusher I hate seeing Chandler Jones rush from the Inside.

Malcolm Brown says hello. Hicks waves. Alan Branch just laughs at you.

 

[manxman2601]

@pff had Easley graded as their best pass rushing DT a couple of weeks ago. This hints as to why. Hit rate of pressures/snaps is quite something.

 

[obgod3]

how many on IR now...Ravens got 18.

 

[Todd Bradley]

Man, really wish Flowers and Johnson weren't hastily put on IR now....

 

[YOUGOTMOSSED]

Tom E. Curran ?@tomecurran 1m1 minute ago

Bad news on DL. Dominique Easley headed to IR.

It seems like we average 2 major injuries per game. WTF?!?!?!?!

 

[VectorPrime]

He never even went into the locker room, he was on the stationary bike on the sidelines. What the hell happened? fuuuuuuuuuuuck. Our DL depth is/was one of the huge strengths of this team. Look at how dominate they were against the Texans. This is a big blow. We were able to rotate in so many fresh quality guys all game. Will we still be able to do that?

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

If this team wins the SB..this many injuries...will be one of the best SB runs ever IMO

 

[dannydyn]

I can foresee a rule change coming.... will be dubbed the "New England Patriots IR Limit" rule. Can't put more than X number of players on IR....

************, soon we'll have more players on IR than on the active roster....

Quick, someone call Ray (double murder) Lewis.... we need a refill for that Deer deodorant spray....
